I used this to fill my friend's devil's food cake for her birthday. She loved it and said it was a Reeses. I accidentally messed up because I halved the recipe but forgot to half the liquids...I just added more powdered sugar and PB. It was yum and I had some left over to decorate cupcakes!

I've tried a few other Peanut Butter Buttercream recipes, none of them nearly as good as this one. I think this might be the best frosting I've ever made. The texture is light and airy, a strong peanut butter flavor, sweet but not sicky....perfect yum-mo! I have a feeling after tomorrow, when the cupcakes will be eaten, I will be asked to make this again for sure. Also it piped onto my cupcakes beautifully!

could you please let me know if the cake has to be refridgerated because of the cream? Also in Canada i believe that it is heavy cream. If you are in Ontario, it is the one in the purpleish carton. Going off memory i think its 18%.

This icing is fabulous! I made this for some cupcakes and my family is still raving about it! Thank you for posting it! If you have a white buttercream icing recipe that is as good as this one I'd love to have it!

Made this last night as a filling for a dark chocolate cake. Sprinkled some chopped reese's peanut butter cups on top of the filling and frosted the whole thing in chocolate buttercream, then covered in modeling chocolate. It was the perfect filling... stiff enough to take the weight, but still light, fluffy and smooth! Great peanut butter taste, wasn't too sweet to catch the back of my throat like some fillings/frosting. This is my go-to peanut butter filling!

Whenever I'm testing a new recipe for the first time I always half it when possible in case I don't like it. This is one time I wish I had made a full batch! This stuff is "DREAMY"!! SOOO good, a must try!! Thanks for sharing!!

Made this last night- tastes so good! I'm normally not a peanut butter fan, but it was hard to stop sampling :). Only problem I had was that it was THICK...did not spread easily even though I didn't add quite the entire amount of sugar and added a bit more cream..so instead of icing the cake I just used it as filling...YUM!

I am speechless and can't even come close to trying to describe this frosting in a way that does it justice! I used my Kitchenaid with the paddle, and it made the creamiest, smoothest PB frosting I've EVER tasted. My husband loves PB frosting, and he said it was the best he'd ever tasted. My Mother-in-Law offered me her recipe - but instead I went to CC.com and used this one based on the reviews. She wanted MY recipe when she tasted this! :D Seriously, this is 'it' for me for PB frosting from now on!

Hi stressed desserts, this is amazing. I love it. Can you tell me what your creamy peanut butter surprise inside the cupcake is please? That is exactly what I want to do for the chocolate cupcakes I am making for my son's football team and can't seem to find a peanut butter filling recipe. Thank you!!!

Question, what time of peanut butter is everyone using? Jiff? Skippy? Peter Pan? Adam's? I only have Adam's, thanks Costco, but if the other brands are what everyone else is using, I'd rather use that if that's what will get me the same tasty results. Can anyone tell me?

Can this icing be tinted like regular buttercream? I have an order for a football cake with PB icing. I haven't made the icing yet, but with all of the great reviews, I am going to make a batch and try it out. What are your thoughts on pairing it with chocolate cake with a chocolate ganache filling? Would the flavors complement each other or would they be too strong for one another?

It's 2016 and this recipe is still wonderful! I just made a double recipe exactly as stated above and it is VERY tasty! I'm going to make graduation cupcakes and cakes for a high school student who wanted chocolate and peanut butter. She is going to be very happy!
